Fitzroy Legal Service - a community legal centre

Going to the Children’s, Magistrates’ or County Court? Been charged by police? Not sure what to do?

Has your relationship broken down and you need to settle a property dispute, make parenting arrangements for your children, or need to apply for or defend an intervention order? We have criminal and family lawyers, including Law Institute Accredited Specialists, who can represent you.

Fitzroy Legal Service has a proud tradition of offering free and affordable legal advice to the Victorian community.

Fitzroy Legal Service is one of the oldest community legal centres in Australia, opening in 1972. We provide legal advice and casework services and play a significant role in the areas of law reform and community legal education. The service has a long history of running public interest cases and the experiences from the casework practice inform the law reform and community legal education activities of the organisation.

FLS provides free legal advice of an evening. This is a drop-in service, no appointments necessary. Interpreting services can be arranged if necessary. We do not provide any legal advice by phone or email. Opening Times for Night Service - Monday - Friday, 6:30pm - 8:00pm at 124 Johnston St,Fitzroy.
